Hi ya'll--

I'm still in "prep" mode and bought a couple of Atkins books for $1.00 at a used bookstore. One of them contains a recipe for a nut crust pumpkin pie and the only thing that looks "unhealthy" to me is the heavy cream!

Is anyone good at recipe substitutions? What would you recommend? Is there a website to look for healthy substitutions?

Thanks!

(those of you who have mentioned "anytizers" in your posts made me stop and find them at the store today...definitely look promising due to their Protein count for a small serving size!)

Anne,

Try to substitute canned evaporated milk (not to be confused with sweetened condensed milk). It has 60% of the Water content removed which makes it thick like heavy cream without the fat.

i've tried plain greek yogurt, and half and half - both are decent replacements.

ok, I know we stay away from white bread, how about flour tortillas.are these a no no??

All uneccessary carbs are a no no... I have found some carb counter tortillia's (trader's Joes), they are not the same, but they give you the same satisfaction. If I have carbs, I make sure they are from whole wheat (tortillia's, Pasta, etc....) you will find that these things fill you up too fast, and you will naturally steer clear of them.

Hope this helps:thumbup:

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
